Every day is a day for girls at Girl Guides Victoria – but International Day of the Girl is an extra special opportunity to pause and reflect on what it means to be a girl in today’s world, and to listen to the voices of girls in our community.
At Girl Guides Victoria, we are proud to provide a brave space where girls and young women can fearlessly shape their own identities, lives and communities. Giving girls the opportunity to find, use and share their voices is at the beating heart of this brave space.
From our girl-led guiding focus, to our girl-led advocacy programs, to building resilience and individual capabilities, creating opportunities and activities to empower girls to express their creativity and their courage and their stories, every element of Girl Guiding encourages and amplifies the girl voice.
In the lead-up to this year’s International Day of the Girl, we hit the road to visit some of our amazing Victorian Girl Guides, to hear their stories and find out what they wanted to say today.
We are very proud and honoured to share their voices with you.
